Well this is the part of ecommerce that can make all the difference. Do you go for the cheap and cheerful starter ecommerce web platform, a free web platform or a platform that is customised for your ecommerce requirements. I would always suggest setting the maximum budget possible for development as when your customer base grows your ecommerce store will start to creek if the necessary ecommerce functionality isn’t in place.
Eg EPOS integration is advisable from start as this will enable you to get used to your ecommerce solution when your business is growing online, instead of trying to integrate it when your ecommerce business is booming, as you wont have the time and will be running from pillar to post to carry out tasks that should be automated.
If your quote is very cheap then there is a reason for this. Remember if its cheap the coders will spend less time developing and testing your ecommerce solution, as you basically pay for time. I would recommend looking for previous results and a track record of working with similar type companies. Oh and most importantly your ecommerce solution provider should be easy to talk to, have a contract that protects you and be flexible to your ecommerce requirements.
Cars that cost around 3k will generally do for learners to break their teeth on. But serious motorists want speed, comfort, reliability and professional engineering. You wouldn’t take a banger to the LaMans Series so why should websites be different. You get what you pay for.
